I strongly advise against that. Whatever it is you want power for, consider using the internal fuse box and a ‘piggy back’ fuse for the correct amps you need.

Ok, well they do provide different electric harnesses for PSA vehicles specifically for charging a battery in a caravan for example - but these are for the towing electrical harnesses that are properly fitted with special fuse box, so can't advise on this.

Is there a grommet on the bulkhead where the clutch hydraulic pipe would go through on a RHD model?
Be very careful if going through the bulkhead, I have seen many a BSI destroyed buy this due to water ingress with poorly positioned/sealed wire entry's.

Have you considered running the cable underneath the car along the floorpan?
